Most pet owners love to dress their cats and dogs in adorable outfits, mostly because they are cold or for holidays like Halloween. Pets look so cute in outfits. While some of them enjoy, others hate wearing clothes. However, I bet you have never seen a dressed tortoise pet. This is something that is worth seeing.
Meet the couple from Sonoma, California who owns a pet tortoise. Kasey Kuchinski 33, and Daniel Rodriguez, 33 dress their tortoise and even decided to coordinate their outfits with the pet.
The couple also has set up an account on Instagram where they share their outfits every day. Kasey, who works as an illustrator, was inspired to coordinate the outfits after seeing many pictures of families with children wearing matching outfits.

The couple doesn’t have any children but they see their pet as their child, so they decided to include her in their pictures. Kasey thought it would be funny to the same thing but with their pet tortoise named Ethel. She loves eating, sitting in the sun and taking walks in the park.
Since Kasey has some experience with fashion design, she made Ethel’s cute outfits. The 33-year-old either make the outfits from a material or by modifying children’s costumes in order to fit the shell-clad body. Kasey doesn’t spend more than $5 on an outfit for Ethel.
The pet reptile already received numerous outfits because of the project. However, Kasey didn’t want to keep them all because they were a smaller size. The family has already worn stripy summer outfits, pink formalwear, and denim overalls.
We are hoping to see a lot more matching outfits in the future. If you want to see more of Kasey’s fancy designs, check the Instagram account @etheltheglamourtort! The couple and their pet already have more than 38,000 followers and Instagram users are more than happy to receive daily updates from their favorite tortoise family.
